A fun, tender, and eccentric novel in true Pancol style

Rose is a young biologist living in Paris, dedicated to the study of Lamprohiza splendidula, a variety of dragonfly that promises to bring great advances in medical research.

Although Rose is an excellent researcher and her work on the sexual chemistry of insects and their reproduction is highly notable, in her personal life she feels utterly helpless. Lately, she seems to have problems with human relationships in general and with Leo in particular, the researcher with whom she has been working for several months and with whom she has fallen madly in love.

Life is not like a laboratory, and neither her mother (hidden behind huge dark glasses) nor her grandmother (who talks to God and her toes) will be able to help her.

This is the story of a strange creature in love, willing to overcome any barrier that life or her personality imposes on her in the difficult path to love and happiness.

Critics have said:
